Abstract


Keselamatan dan kesihatan merupakan aspek penting dalam kehidupan seharian agar proses hidup masyarakat lebih terjamin dan berkualiti terutama di kawasan Program Perumahan Rakyat (PPR). Penafian kepentingan aspek ini akan memberi kesan buruk kepada masyarakat termasuk golongan remaja yang masih dalam proses awal perkembangan hidup. Masalah seperti gejala ponteng sekolah, kecurian, isu lepak, jenayah pelbagai, mengambil bahan terlarang dan gangguan kemudahan awam boleh berlaku sekiranya aspek keselamatan dan persekitaran tidak diberi perhatian sewajarnya. Melihat kepentingan isu tersebut, kajian dijalankan untuk mengenal pasti faktor utama yang mempengaruhi keselamatan persekitaran dalam kalangan remaja di PPR. Kajian melibatkan komuniti remaja yang menetap di kawasan PPR di sekitar Lembah Klang. Sejumlah 244 orang remaja yang berumur dalam lingkungan 11 hingga 24 tahun terlibat dalam kajian ini. Penganalisaan data dilakukan menggunakan ujian deskriptif dan analisis regresi pelbagai secara stepwise. Kajian mendapati lima faktor yang mempengaruhi keselamatan persekitaran dalam kalangan remaja di PPR iaitu kesihatan diri, hubungan kejiranan, penggunaan media sosial, hubungan keluarga dan semangat cintakan Malaysia. Keputusan kajian ini menunjukkan bahawa faktor kesihatan diri merupakan petunjuk utama yang mempengaruhi keselamatan persekitaran perumahan dalam kalangan remaja yang menetap di PPR. Kombinasi kelima-lima faktor tersebut telah menyumbang sebanyak 39.6% varians terhadap keselamatan persekitaran perumahan dalam kalangan remaja yang tinggal di PPR. Hasil kajian memberi implikasi positif kepada pihak yang berkepentingan dalam usaha menyediakan pelan strategik yang komprehensif untuk menambahbaik program keselamatan dan kesihatan dalam kalangan remaja di Malaysia.

Safety and health are important aspects of everyday life in order to ensure a more secure and better quality of life in the people's housing area (PPR). Denial of the importance of this aspect will have an adverse impact on society including the young people who are still in the early stages of life's development. Problems such as truancy, theft, loitering issues, petty crimes, substances abuse and vandalism of public utilities may occur if the security and environment aspects lacked proper attention. Due to the significance of the issue, a study was conducted to identify key factors affecting the safety of the environment among adolescences in PPR. This study involves a total of 244 adolescent aged 11-25 years old living in PPR communities around the Klang Valley. Data analysis methods used includes descriptive and multiple stepwise regression analysis. The study found five factors that affect the security of the environment among adolescents in PPR namely self health, neighborhood relationships, social media usage, family ties and love for Malaysia. The results of this study show that the health factor is a key indicator that affects the security of housing environment among adolescents who live in PPR. The combination of these five factors has contributed 39.6% variance to the security of the housing environment among adolescents living in PPR. The findings provide positive implication toward the stakeholders in the effort to provide a comprehensive strategic plan to improve safety and health programs amongst the teenagers in Malaysia.
